So I just got home from the village a few days ago and when we got home i had no internet! So i thought I would tell you how the trip went. I think that this was my favorite trip into the village so far. It was more of a you can go off and do what you want to do kind of trip. So i got to spend alot of time being with the little kids and playing with them. One day They wanted to take me on a walk with them in the jungle. So we were walkin around for like an hour and we came to this little stream and so i decided to go and stand on one of the rocks that had water flowing over it and try and get the other three kids to come in with me they wouldnt untill i slipped on the rock and completly fell into the water! Then they all decided to jump in and play with me i was in so much pain but had so much getting to be in water for the first time all summer and getting to see these kids have a little bit of a child hood for once. Another thing i decided to do was go for a walk and i met three kids and stopped to say hi next thing i new i was being invited up for tea and sitting talking to the family on the porch. I was invited back the next day and the teenage girl really seemed to like to have me around. So i would go and visit her during the day. I got to visit with sooshma alot. I have noticed a huge difference in the way that her sibblings are treating her while we were ther and it made me really happy. Like her sister a few years older then her i saw every night would go and wash her off and started bring her ti come see me, wich never happens. The best thing to see tho was when paboo started screaming and yelling at shooshma, Pooja came over and grabed her sister by the hand and started screaming and yelling at him then nicly took her into the house and gave her a plate of rice and dal. It was the most rewarding thing ever.
Untill next time
BYE!!!
